Lin An was frightened to the point that his entire body started trembling. He couldn't help but feel his eyes become wet. His lively eyes were red and misty, like a shallow pond rippling with ripples.

Ji City could see the fear in the depths of this shallow pond.

Damn it! Nineteen years old, she was truly terrified of Ji Chengyan …

Lin An was slightly annoyed.

"Lin An'an." Ji Chengyan called her name again. His voice was deep and pleasant, but it made people tremble and shiver from the bottom of their hearts.

"Mm …" Lin An answered subconsciously.

"You want to escape?" Ji Chengyan's grip on her chin tightened.

Lin An shook his head as tears fell from the corners of his eyes. Poor Ji Chengyan, who looked like an injured rabbit.

This feeling was not good. Ji Chengyan let her go and fretfully frowned. He tore off his tie and strode out, leaving only two words behind, "We'll talk about it later."

Lin An was a bit panicked. He didn't know what Ji Chengyan's intentions were, but after calming down, he thought that he shouldn't rush into success.

She sat on the chair and watched as Ji Chengyan walked out of the villa and climbed into the car. She only retracted her gaze after Meybach had disappeared into the dust.

For the next three days, Ji Chengyan did not appear.

For the past three days, Lin An'an stayed alone in the villa. If he wanted to use five words to sum up his life, he would be bored to the point of becoming moldy.

Ji Chengyan remembered that the injuries on her body had not recovered yet, so he gave a few days' leave to the home tutor.

The game she was good at had not yet been developed and would not be released until the middle of June, when the first game, Chicken Feeding, would be released.

It was hard to imagine her in her last life, when she was nineteen, living the same life day after day.

On the fourth night, Lin An An finished his meal and as usual, accompanied by servants went for a walk in the garden. But this time, he was informed that he would be accompanying Ji Chengyan to a banquet that night.

The servants were all somewhat surprised, while Lin An'an had a calm expression.

Actually, she had been waiting for this banquet these past three days. As long as tonight passed, her position in Ji Chengyan's heart would rise to a whole new level. When that time came, he would definitely agree to her request to go to school.

She wouldn't foolishly jump into Lin Jingya's trap like she did in her previous life, and anger Ji Chengyan.

An hour later, in front of the large fitting mirror, she was dressed in an evening gown with her shoulders exposed and forked. The hem of her dress was decorated with bits of diamonds, making her look like a blooming white lotus under the light.

She wore delicate and light makeup on her face. Her eyes were filled with longing. Her cheeks were pink, her lips red, and her teeth white. She was beyond beautiful.

The servants at the side watched on dumbfoundedly. It was rare for a stylist to be so flabbergasted. Lin An pretended to be shy, and embarrassedly asked the servant at the side, "How is it? Is that okay? "

"It's especially beautiful, Miss Lin. You're the most beautiful person I've ever seen!" The servants' words were sincere, not a form of flattery.

Lin An smiled bashfully. Before she could say anything, she heard footsteps outside the door. She knew that Ji City had arrived.

She clearly remembered that at this time in her previous life, Ji Chengyan was deeply shocked by her appearance.

After all, in front of him, she had always been pretending to be ugly and had never revealed a shred of her beauty.

What was laughable was that in order to not let Ji Chengyan see her true appearance, she did not agree to using makeup in her previous life. In the end, Ji Chengyan came over and threatened her, causing her to be obedient.

Seeing Ji City's arrival, a hint of panic flashed across Lin An's eyes. She hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

And the tall man was walking step by step towards her...
